The solution is to automate the roll rather than pop up a dialog box while I'm fighting stuff. And Need for the current companion is perfectly legit. Your companion is part of your character. So if the item is for your class, or for your active companion, it's need. Otherwise it's greed. Just automate the roll.
First off, I'd rather pay a sub of $10 (all this game deserves, I'd pay $20 for a real MMO) than get gouged by ridiculous prices like the ones currently in the C Store. The issue here isn't about not wanting to pay, it's about wanting to get decent value for the money I do spend. However all the F2P game companies seem to…
Over 50 views and no one thought this was important enough to reply? I've seen more than one comment where people are griping about not being able to respec for PvP, this is one possible solution. Make a PvE build and a PvP build.
Frankly the whole Need/Greed thing is an abomination IMO anyway. That stupid dialog box keeps popping up while I'm fighting stuff and I just <shift+#> to get rid of it. I try to see if there's red text and hit 2 if so, but I may or may not actually hit it as I'm busy with other stuff at the moment. The solution is simple,…
I haven't been able to access the Gateway at all. Probably because I'm on Wind8. Some time when I actually care I'll try forcing my browsers (yes, I've tried in Chrome, Firefox, even (God help me) IE.
As one completely ridiculous example, I got a companion today. Cleric in a box, but what gender? Well I picked the wrong one and named a chick Wilfred. Clicked on the Rename button and was presented with a bill for 6,000 zen. Are you insane? 6,000 zen to rename a PET. That's $6. You want SIX DOLLARS (US) to rename a pet?…
@OP Don't you think it's a bit early for nerf herding? The game hasn't even officially launched yet and you're in here crying about something that probably doesn't need to be fixed. I say probably since my TR is still under 10, I only play that character with my spouse, and I don't PvP.
FotM exists w/o respecs just fine, as you pointed out. People who want to play FotM builds have a nice little PL network already setup, so they make the level cap in 2, maybe 3, days or less. Having no, or very pricey, respecs only hurts average and casual players. Especially since free respecs will have to be given out by…
Ahh, then you know what High Availability means.... If there are 3 games (CO, STO, NW) behind whatever piece of hardware broke (speculation based on the issues with STO happening at the same time), it would behove PWE to have two data centers. And given their cash shop pricing they should easily be able to afford it. Since…
Rather than having to respec multiple times per month (or day if one switches between PvP and PvE a lot) wouldn't it make more sense to allow multiple builds? Particularly with CW since control is typically nerfed pretty hard for PvP.
